178 Out of town
The young man thought that he had misheard, and took a step forward with his eyes and said, "Second Miss, this is a person from the Xiao Mansion, a person who the general is trying to take, how can we retreat and let them go!" ”
Hua Ti glared at him fiercely, opened her hands to protect Xiao Zhan behind her, and said sharply: "Miss Ben doesn't care, you all step down for me!" ”
"Please also ask the second lady not to mess around, if we leave, the general will definitely treat us for the crime of incompetence, you are embarrassing us."
"Don't worry, with me, my father won't punish you, but if you don't retreat, I will die in front of you, I am my father's favorite daughter, if I die, you won't be able to live!"
Hearing this, the young man hesitated, and he stood there silent for a long time, not knowing how to act.
Seeing his reaction, Hua Ti breathed a sigh of relief. turned back to Xiao Zhan and Hua Fei and said, "You come with me, I won't let you have an accident." ”
Hua Fei hesitated for a moment, not knowing why Hua Ti wanted to help them so much.
Looking up at Xiao Zhan again, I saw that he was also frowning, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he turned his head to Hua Fei and said, "Scarlet, time is urgent, let's leave first." ”
If you miss the best opportunity to help, I don't know if my father and mother can hold up in the house.
Hua Fei nodded hesitantly, and looked at Hua Ti again, thinking that she helped them so much, probably because she still loved Xiao Zhan in her heart.
Everyone walked to the tunnel not far in front of them, Xiao Zhan walked in front and held Hua Fei's hand, and Hua Ti and Wang Lian'er broke off.
The hands of the men holding the knives were about to move, but they did not dare to do so, so they could only watch them leave the tunnel.
The tunnel was dim and damp, and there was basically no light, so everyone could only move forward by feeling.
After walking for about an hour, the faint moonlight could finally be seen in front of them, and the pace of the people quickened considerably, and when they reached the entrance of the cave, they saw a straight staircase.
Xiao Zhan carefully led Hua Fei all the way up, stepped out of a well, and looked around.
In front of me is a courtyard, as if you are in the middle of a family.
Soon after, several torches suddenly appeared in the courtyard, illuminating the whole courtyard.
"Who? Who's there? ”
When Hua Fei heard this voice, there was surprise in her eyes, and she hurriedly shouted: "Wang Geng! ”
Wang Geng fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xiao Zhan and Hua Fei, and hurriedly stepped forward in three steps and two steps, looked at them and said, "Young Master, why did you suddenly come here, young lady?" Or is it from here, is something going on? ”
Hua Fei walked towards the courtyard and said, "It's too late to talk to you now, do you have a horse?" We're going to get out of here. ”
"Yes, yes, the little one will go and bring it to the young lady."
Wang Geng hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, and soon after, he hurried over and said to Hua Fei: "Young lady, the little one has prepared a few horses and carriages, how much do you think you need?" ”
Hua Fei and Xiao Zhan turned on their horses at the same time, and then turned back to Wang Geng and said, "You hurry up and let them all leave here and hide elsewhere, it's not safe here." ”
Then he turned his head to look at Hua Ti and them, pondered for a moment and said, "Thank you for today's events, you should get out of here quickly, we still have important things to do, so let's go first." ”
Seeing that they were leaving, Hua Ti hurriedly ran a few steps forward and said eagerly: "Can you let us follow you, if we two weak women who are powerless encounter bandits or something outside, what should we do?" And with us, even the people who met my dad were safer. ”
Hua Fei glanced at Xiao Zhan, and when she saw him nodding, she had to agree: "Okay, then you can get into the carriage and follow us." ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Hua Ti's eyes, and she immediately lifted her skirt and got into the carriage, followed closely by Wang Lian'er and Wang Ju'er.
"Zhan Zhan, which direction are we going?"
Before Xiao Zhan could speak, Hua Ti lifted the curtain and came out of the carriage and said eagerly at them: "Sister, I vaguely heard my father say that there are people in the south of Shitan County, in order not to collide with them, let's go north." ”
Huafei listened to her words, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
The group went out of the county seat, walked all the way north on the official road with mountains and forests on both sides, and after about half an hour, Xiao Zhan tightened the reins and stopped.
"Scarlet, it should be almost safe here, I have to hurry up and go to the place my father said to do something, you stay here for the time being, and then enter the city after the situation is stable."
Hua Fei nodded at him: "Okay, you go quickly, I will stay here to protect them." ”
Xiao Zhan still trusts Hua Fei's martial arts, and there is no other better way at this moment, so he can only leave her here alone for the time being.
After a few more instructions, he rode away, so that only four women were left huddled in the woods, staring wide-eyed.
Huafei had said that to Wang Lian'er before, and she was embarrassed to talk to them at the moment, so she just sat alone and closed her eyes and rested.
Wang Ju'er came to her side, squatted down and asked, "Young lady, are you thirsty?" I went to find out if there was any water around. ”
Hua Fei smiled at her and said, "There are mountains all around here, and it doesn't look like a place with water, so don't run around at night, stay here." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Lian'er came over with a kettle, handed it to them and said, "I have it here, do you want to drink it?" ”
Hua Fei looked up at her, her face was a little surprised, she didn't know if Wang Lian'er really changed sex or had other intentions.
Hua Fei didn't take her water, but smiled back and said, "No need, thank you." ”
Wang Lian'er was obviously not very satisfied with her answer, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Young Mrs. Xiao still looks down on me? Do you think my water is dirty, or do you think I've poisoned it? If it's the former, then I deserve to stick a hot face to your cold ass, and if it's the latter, I can take a sip in front of you and see if there's any poison in it. ”
After saying that, she angrily pulled the stopper from the kettle, and poured a mouthful of water into her mouth.
Hua Fei looked at her quietly, she really didn't completely relax her vigilance against her, but as soon as she said this, she did seem to treat kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.
Since Wang Lian'er had already taken a sip, she didn't need to refuse anymore, so she took the kettle and said, "I didn't mean that, it just so happened that I was thirsty, thank you for the water." ”
After taking a few sips of Yangtian and cooing, Huafei wiped the corners of her mouth and returned the kettle to Wang Lian'er.
But what she didn't notice was that the moment Wang Lian'er turned around, a strange smile appeared on her face.
